Although I created this
Rooster in San Francisco Bay 20"x24" oil painting in 2007, it seems appropriate today both for
Illustration Friday's word "chicken" and as a symbol of hope. When I lived briefly in Portugal years ago I was impressed by all of the
good luck roosters I saw there so was inspired to create one of my own walking on water in the San Francisco bay. According to
Wikipedia, to walk on water means to do something nearly impossible. We need more people (not chickens) walking on water these days and fewer of them shooting people with words, pictures and bullets.
